yeah. Lindsay’s been cracking the whip on “enhancing” coverage. Have you seen the coffee cup graced with Ovie’s image for morning rink headlines? (although if she manages to drag Svrgula from the black hole that is the Redskins beat, I’ll be forever grateful)

Well, that’s the question, and further to it, I read this earlier today:
When Bryan Murray coached in Ottawa, he had a "two-goal rule" when it came to fighting. If the Senators were up two, no one was allowed to go. He didn’t want to lose momentum. After Max Talbot’s fight with Daniel Carcillo turned a 3-0 Philly lead into a series clinching loss last year, you figure everyone would learn the lesson. But noooooooooo. Last Tuesday, Anaheim led Minnesota 3-0 when John Scott challenged George Parros. Parros accepted, and was kayoed. Andrew Brunette won it in OT for the Wild.
Those who understand: John Erskine and Darcy Hordichuk. Both skated away from fights last week when their teams were in control.

I’m in full support of this depending on situation. If a guy is doing something dirty, like a late hit or an elbow, I’m for the fight, because it shows you’re not going to take the garbage, and it can lead to a momentum swing on it’s own.

You know, a lot of people disagree (I remember Pensburgh saying this) that most teams pick their best player who’s also a leader to be their Captain, but in Washington we pick our best leader who’s also a good player. I like our system better. Lead by example, Clarky.

This. Clarkson wasn’t going to stop at Clark; he was out there to start something, and he was out there to take liberties. Clark answered the bell so someone else didn’t have to, and he showed that they weren’t going to take it. AND, as the icing on the cake, he made the fight extra lame so there was absolutely no momentum coming out of it whatsoever.

Depends who gets the charity point. In all honesty, though, I want the 4/4 OT to be 10 minutes, not 5.

I’m not saying he should be fired. I’m just saying if he’s done all he can do then he’s done. He better have more tricks or else he’ll have to go. And it’s not just 4 games, this goes back to last season as well. The team does not play with intensity, focus, and discipline for 60 minutes, and they basically haven’t since we lost to PHI in the playoffs.

I’m saying screamer type or not, Theo has given away plenty of games with soft goals. If he starts ranting because the skaters let him down tonight, how long until someone says “cough Gaborik 5 hole cough” and then you just have a divided locker room. Everyone knows they let him down, he doesn’t need to be the one to say it.

Well it’s not denying that taking the Hart/Vezina year away from him, I think we would all be VERY happy with any of his season from: 2000 (2.50 gaa, .909 sv%); 2003 (2.27 gaa, .919 sv ); 2007 (2.44 gaa, .910 sv) and even 99-2000 as #2 he had a 2.10 gaa and .917 sv %. So all that to say that Theo can get the job done, and I don’t think we NEED to play Varly

2007 is the only one I think is even relevant anymore, and if anyone remembers that year he was atrocious for the first half and on fire for the second half. It wasn’t a full year of solid hockey, and like I said .910 is only mildly above average anyway.
